Parliament wants to improve the exchange of police data between the cantons and between the cantons and federal police bodies. It has referred a motion to the Federal Council to put pressure on the implementation of a motion passed five years ago.

On Wednesday, the small chamber approved the request of the National Council’s Security Policy Committee (SIK-N) without opposition. The tenor was that the Swiss population could be better protected against crime with the implementation of a national police data exchange.

The aim is for cantonal police forces to be able to quickly access all police data available in Switzerland at any time in the future. The cantons have been working for years to find a technical solution and to make progress towards an intercantonal concordat for the exchange of information.

The motion that has now been referred to the Federal Council is intended to serve as a plan B if the cantons are unable to reach an agreement. With an amendment to the Federal Constitution, all issues between the Confederation and the cantons could be clarified jointly, said Council of States member Charles Juillard (center/JU) on behalf of the responsible committee.

The creation of national police databases would thus be better legitimized from both a democratic and a federalist perspective.
